The staples are a Laura mercier Smokey eye palate that I got in 2016, a brown jay manuel lip liner (same era) that I use as eye liner, sometimes the dr jart cicapair stuff if my face looks red, and either some soap or clear glossier boy brow for the brows. Mascara sometimes, and some sort of lip If it works with my outfit, but mainly just this sort of messy Smokey undereye and some sort of eyeshadow sometimes (applied with my finger) depending on the rest of my look…and sometimes a white accent (nyx liquid white eyeliner). No foundation ever. These photos are both the dolled up version, usually it’s just the brown lip liner as eyeliner lol

Do you want a simple, buildable everyday routine? Or are you looking for fun, experimental and accessible recs?
My everyday makeup is blush (Ilia At Last multistick), mascara (Ilia volumizing mascara), and lipstick (Clinique Black Honey, or Ilia Colorblock in Tango).
When I want concealer or foundation, I use Nars Radiant Creamy concealer, and Tarte Maracuja tinted hydrator— if I want something lighter I might just top my face with Laura Mercier loose setting powder.
If you want eye makeup or night out recs, I have this Morphe pink palette I’ve used forever, and the Tarte Quick Stick eyeliner and shadow sticks.
It’s very okay to still feel “bad at makeup”— it should feel fun, and low stakes, and what works for other people might not be what works for you— you have your whole life to find your products.

Gazpacho only in the late summer, persimmons only in the winter, etc. just because we can import anything from anywhere anytime doesn’t mean we should. Nothing is special if you can have it whenever you want it.
